Long-term evolution of a carbonate reservoir submitted to fresh, saline and thermal waters interactions – Jurassic carbonates in the coastal area of the Gulf of Lion margin (southern France)
Abstract:Securing and managing underground water resources requires a good knowledge of the structure, texture and connections of the reservoir, in order to develop realistic and reliable hydrogeological models. On the coastline of the Gulf of Lion Margin (S. France), the Balaruc-les-Bains deep karst reservoir is subjected to interactions between fresh, marine and deep thermal waters, respectively. Water resource usage for drinking, spa resort, and fish-farming raises important economic and social issues. These were ad… Show more
“…The Vise submarine spring (BSS002JDMR) located in the Thau lagoon (southern France) is one of the most important natural outlets of the Jurassic karstified limestone aquifer [2] , the other overflow outlets of the karst aquifer being the springs of Cauvy (BSS002JDNJ), Ambressac (BSS002JECB) and Issanka (BSS002JCUL) located onshore on the peninsula of Balaruc [3] .…”
